Endowed funds play a critical role in the long-term financial success and stability of an institution. These assets are invested in perpetuity, unlike gifts to the Tepper Annual Fund which are used for immediate needs, opportunities and initiatives.
Endowment funds provide a steady, predictable source of income over time, on which the university can make commitments and build its programs. A strong endowment allows Tepper faculty and administrators to pursue critical initiatives that enhance our ability to be a global leader in business education. In addition to providing stability for the future, endowment gifts help the Tepper School of Business attract and retain top faculty and students.
We especially need endowment gifts to support new professorships and research funds, particularly during a period in which several of our most prominent faculty members are nearing retirement and when the dean will be faced with the task of recruiting new scholars to maintain our leadership position in important fields of research. New endowment funding is also required to support fellowships and financial aid, to ensure that the distinctive and powerful benefits of a Tepper School education remain available to students regardless of their or their families' financial means and to attract the very most talented and promising students to the Tepper School.
The benefits to a Tepper School faculty member who holds an endowed professorship—which is a faculty appointment supported by the investment return of an endowment gift—include opportunities for enhanced teaching and research and increased prestige. Students benefit from the scholarships, fellowships, and the excellent teaching, programs, and research initiatives that endowment support helps make possible.
To discuss how you can create an endowed fund at the Tepper School of Business, please contact Tepper School's Executive Director of Individual Giving, Ann Powers (412-268-5992; firstname.lastname@example.com).
Additional, general endowed giving information may be found via the Carnegie Mellon web site at https://www.cmu.edu/campaign/ways/planned/q_and_a.html

Outside of a few core zones, we tend to overlook the appearance of our body - women don't. Here are some key areas to maintain.
The effects of too much scrubbing, when you stop growing, and more in this week's Q&A.
It's the first thing people see but the last thing you think about: your face. Are you taking care of it?
We have 3 tips for better-looking skin from the Yigal Azrouel show, plus the runway hairstyle that will actually translate into real life.
These strips make some serious claims, but talk is cheap. Will your $25 (and seven days) really result in pearlier whites?
Why? Because your sweat-stained arm holes aren't impressing the boss - or her.
Follow these tips for staying sweat-free, and wave goodbye to those embarrassing pit stains forever.

It's usually best to tear out the entire shower right down to the subfloor and to the wall studs. It doesn't make a lot of sense to do all that work and not replace the shower pan.
Hello, first time user. what is the best way to tile a stand up shower (no tub)? I am leaving the existing shower pan and tile on the floor, but I want to take off old tile on walls. should I take off old tile on the walls or should I leave it? also not sure if I need to replace the shower pan? can i tile over tile?need some good advise.
It's usually best to tear out the entire shower right down to the subfloor and to the wall studs. It doesn't make a lot of sense to do all that work and not replace the shower pan.
John Bridge, Ceramic Tile Setter :-)
Thanks, but I did not want to get into replacing a shower pan, 1 because I don't have the experience and 2 seems complicated. however I can learn anything. my question is, can I tile over tile? Example, take down tile from walls leaving the tile on the floor of the shower and tiling over it. this way the tile on floor and walls will match. what do you think?
Maybe you didn't realize that the Premier tile website in the whole country is johnbridge.com, and Mr. Bridge himself has offered his advice to you.
First, I recommend you click his link to visit the site. There is a tremendous wealth of information there. In addition, www.tileusa.com if the website for the Tile Council of America, the industry organization. They also offer a wealth of information on line and through inexpensive publications.
Now, there is a reason why I or Mr. Bridge or any other professionals who lurk around these forums are reluctant to suggest that you could do what you are asking. A shower is a big construction project that realistically should be a committment for the next 20 years. Also, a minor failure in the watertight construction can lead to latent damage which if you have not read about the horror stories, do a search on mold or rot.
It's not that it is improper to tile over tile. You will read in the various references I have cited that under the right circumstances it is in fact doable. It's just that a shower is made up of the substructure which is equally important as the tile itself. And sometimes a 'patch' job just is not the right thing.
So, above all, read the literature. Make yourself the most educated person on your block about tile showers! Then you can proceed with confidence.
Gosh Jim, Didn't anyone ever tell you that tilers and plumbers don't get along?
I try to get along, because if anything happens, then we get to play the "Blame Game" !
I have firerglass stand up shower that is 30 years old. Wondering how hard is it to remove the ancient on an install a new on.

Earmark Reforms Implemented in 110th Congress, 2007-2008
- 2007 Moratorium. In January 2007, when Democrats took control of Congress, we imposed a one-year moratorium on earmarks for 2007 until a reformed process could be put in place.
- Rules for Transparency. Democrats created unprecedented rules for transparency for earmarks. Under the new rules, created in 2007, each bill must be accompanied by a list identifying each earmark that it includes and which member requested it. Those lists are available online before the bill is ever voted on. In the House, each earmark on those lists is backed up by a public letter from the requesting member identifying the earmark, the entity that will receive the funds and their address, what the earmark does, and a certification that neither the requesting member nor their spouse will benefit from it financially.
- Significant Reductions. In the FY 2008 bills, the total dollar amount earmarked for non-project-based accounts in appropriations bills was reduced by 43 percent below the FY 2006 level.
Additional Earmark Reforms Being Implemented in 111th Congress, 2009
- Beginning with FY 2010 Bills, Expanding Transparency Requirements - Requiring All Members' Requests for Earmarks To Also Be Publicly Disclosed. Beginning with FY 2010 bills, which appropriations subcommittees will begin working on this spring, to offer more opportunity for public scrutiny of Member requests, Members will be required to post information on their earmark requests on their Member sites at the time the request is made explaining the purpose of the earmark and why it is a valuable use of taxpayer funds.
- Beginning with FY 2010 Bills, Requiring Even Earlier Public Disclosure. Beginning with FY 2010 bills, to increase public scrutiny of committee decisions, earmark disclosure tables will be made publicly available the same day as the House or Senate Subcommittee reports the bill (rather than the same day as the Full Committee reports the bill, as under the current rules.)
- Further Cuts. For the FY 2008 bills, as mentioned above, earmark funding levels were reduced by 43 percent below the FY 2006 level for non-project-based accounts. For the FY 2009 bills, including the three FY 2009 bills already enacted and the Omnibus bill that will be considered by the House during the week of February 23, earmark funding levels will continue to be reduced further - reducing them by MORE THAN 43 percent below the FY 2006 level. Then, for the FY 2010 bills, earmark funding levels will be reduced to 50 percent below the FY 2006 level.

First Timers Looking to Make an Impact at Women's World Cup
Sep 18, 2003
"There's Mia."
"Brandi is over there."
"Julie is taking shots on goal."
They rattle off names of the U.S. Women's National Team like they named the players themselves. Then there's a bit of a pause and an uncertainty in their voices as they scan the rest of the field.
"Which one is the college girl?"
"Is that Bivens?
"Who's that in the ponytail?"
"They all have ponytails!"
The American sports fan knows the faces of Mia Hamm, Brandi Chastain, Julie Foudy, Briana Scurry and the rest of the U.S. women who were splashed all over the sporting news during the summer of 1999, but four years later they are getting to know a new generation of players.
Some of freshest faces are Cat, Kylie, Shannon, Angela, Abby and Aly. All young. All talented. And all named by U.S. Women's National Team head coach April Heinrichs to compete in their first world championship tournament.
While the U.S. roster is loaded with numerous players who have Women's World Cup and Olympic experience, these six newcomers will be looking to make an impact for the first time on a big stage. And it's just possible that by the end of the tournament, young kids will be calling their names. In fact, they've already started.
"That's Cat. I saw her play at UNC. She's tackles hard."
"That's Aly. Did you see her goal against Costa Rica a few weeks ago?"
Getting the Call
On August 24, all six found out that they would be a part of the 2003 U.S. Women's World Cup Team. It was a day they won't forget. All of the women, except for Shannon Boxx, had been a part of training camps, matches and tournaments before. But this time it was different. They were going to the Women's World Cup.
For defender Kylie Bivens, who had just seven caps when she was named to the team, it was part of a roller coaster day of emotions.
"We had just come off losing the Founders Cup to the Washington Freedom, so I wasn't in a very good mood," said Bivens of her mental state when she received a cell phone call from Heinrichs. That would change in an instant.
"I was actually at a sports bar with my teammates when I got the call. I went outside to talk and I couldn't believe it," she said. "I thought for a moment that it was some kind of a joke. When April told me I said, 'Are you serious? You're kidding me, right? I was really excited and screamed by myself on the street and went back inside."
Forward Abby Wambach was just as excited to get the news, but her day was an emotional roller coaster of a different sort. More like an emotional rocket. Hours earlier she had scored both goals to lead the Freedom over Biven's Atlanta Beat, 2-1.
"It was just one of those days you're never going to forget," Wambach said. "I was like, 'could this day get any better?'"
A Dream Come True
While getting named to the team might been a surprise to some of players, it definitely wasn't something these women hadn't dreamed about before.
Cat Reddick, a 21-year-old University of North Carolina senior, said she didn't know much about the national team in the early 90's because there wasn't much media coverage on the team – especially in her hometown of Birmingham, Alabama. But, during the 1996 Olympics she got the chance to go see the many of her current teammates play and it changed her life forever.
"When I saw them win the gold medal and stand up on the podium, and I knew I wanted to be there one day," said the 5-foot-5 defender. "You have to dream big, and at times I thought that it was a dream that would just stay a dream and wouldn't actually come true. Now that I'm here and it is actually coming true, it's just absolutely amazing."
Similar to Reddick, midfielder Aly Wagner didn't know much about the national team while growing up in San Jose, California, just that Brandi Chastain, another San Jose local, was on it, and that Brandi was her idol. When she watched Chastain and the U.S. play, she knew getting to that pinnacle would be her top priority.
"I had no concept of what it was going to take, but I knew I wanted to be there," said Wagner, who has 47 caps heading into the Women's World Cup. "But it was one of my dreams. I remember watching the USA-Germany game in the 1999 Women's World Cup while I was jumping rope in my living room and I said to myself, 'I'm going to be there next time.'"
Fitting into the Team
All young player coming into the national team have an adjustment period, a nerve-wracking first training camp in which you are no longer watching your heroes on TV, you are standing next to them. Reddick was no different.
"I remember going to the airport and almost breaking down in tears I was so scared," she said. "I was so nervous and didn't know if the girls were going to like me."
After meeting the players she realized she had nothing to worry about. She was going to be just fine with an inclusive group of veteran players who welcome the youngsters into the national team family right away.
"There really isn't that much of a gap," Reddick said. "The only gap for me is when I'm doing school work, while they are watching movies or reading books they want to read. Then I'm in my room opening up the Intro to Criminology."
Reddick found they had similar tastes as well.
"The music they listen to is about the same as mine," Reddick said. "I've made a mix and they just love it. They are young at heart and you can really tell that."
While getting along with the veterans off the field is often an easy transition, getting used to the speed and quality of play is another story. But it's a challenge that all the young players enjoy.
"It's awesome," said Angela Hucles, who broke into the national team in 2002. "I've looked up to them for many years and wanted to be in their shoes. Being able to play with them an experience I will always have with me. Sometimes I still pinch myself when I'm huddled up with them and I look around at all these amazing players."
Reddick, the youngest player on the Women's World Cup Team and the only amateur, admitted that being on the practice field everyday with the legends of her sport is still a bit surreal.
"You might have a Brandi on your right and a Mia right in front of you and you're like, 'Oh, my goodness, look who I'm in between right now,'" she said. "I play on the same team with these women who have been here so long, and I have to pinch myself now and then."
Making the Most of the Opportunity
All the women realize that once they get on the field, it doesn't matter who they are lined up with or against. It's then about performing and showing that they can compete at the highest level.
"Regardless of my age or my experience, I always put pressure on myself to make an impact," said Wagner, who has 12 international goals. "You're not out here to just hang on and stay with the team, you are here to get better."
And that's the key. It is the goal of these players to not only have success in this Women's World Cup, but to make the Olympic roster in 2004 and the next Women's World Cup roster after that. They all strive to stay at the top level for years to come and to find out the best way to accomplish those goals they need to look no father than the women on the field next to them.
"The (veteran players) have set standards and a tradition that is like nothing else," said Wambach, who has nine goals in just 14 international matches. "The pride that these women have about achieving success and loving every single minute of it is amazing."
So with a tremendous respect for the past, and the present, the new names head into the 2003 Women's World Cup with unbridled excitement and legendary role models to lead the way. Soon, everyone will be calling their names.

Antarctic Krill Oil is extracted from the Antarctic krill species Euphausia Superba, which is rich in the Omega 3 fatty acids Eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexanoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA have been linked to a reduced risk and improved treatment outcomes regarding cardiovascular disease and inflammatory joint diseases. Omega 3 has also been linked to improved brain and CNS development as well as improved cognitive function, skin health and overall wellbeing.
The Omega 3 in Antarctic Krill Oil is mainly in the Omega 3 phospholipid form, which research suggests is a more bioactive form when compared to the triglyceride form of Omega 3. As the current Western diet is particularly low in the healthier phospholipid fatty acids, supplements like Antarctic Krill Oil offer an easy and effective way of increasing daily consumption.
Antarctic Krill Oil also has extremely potent antioxidant properties due to the natural presence of astaxanthin. Independent tests suggest the antioxidant power of Antarctic Krill Oil to be:Over 300 times greater than Vitamins A & EOver 48 times greater than Omega-3Over 34 times greater than Co Q-10
The advanced extraction process of Antarctic Krill Oil is performed with the complete absence of Hexane, a chemical often used in lesser quality Krill supplements. Our krill oil is produced through a unique and environmentally responsible process, meaning superior quality oil with a minimal impact on the natural resource. In addition, the quality of our krill oil is unsurpassed. Due to the high presence of phospholipids and astaxanthin means Antarctic Krill Oil is less susceptible to oxidation.

Having conducted research into the benefits of Krill Oil, and reputable retailers of such a product, I was relieved to discover that Krill Oil was offered for sale by My Protein at a price that I considered reasonable, in comparison to other retailers.
Following receipt of the product, on Friday 3rd January 2014, I've taken one 500mg capsule daily.
Thus far, I've reported the following benefits:
I've witnessed a marked improvement in the overall condition of my skin, hair and nails;
After three days' consumption, I'd noticed that my body didn't seem to be as stiff and as achy following a night's sleep; and
Upon beginning consumption, during which I'd begun to suffer from a head cold, the associated symptoms remained restricted to a blocked nose, which has since subsided.
Additionally, since beginning consumption, I'm also pleased to report that the capsules have not produced any un-welcome reflux, something which I've previously encountered with triglyceride forms of fish oil.
Unfortunately, due to my recent head cold, I'm unable to comment upon the effectiveness of Krill Oil and its sub-component, Astaxanthin, as a supplement to support one's sporting goals, however, due to the anti-inflammatory properties displayed by both, I'm hopeful that they will provide support as I begin my quest to venture from the confines of the swimming pool to open-water swimming.
Goes Well With:Water.

This Antarctic Krill Oil is one of the best krill oils I have ever had. The taste is good and not so disgusting like other products.
- (08 / Oct / 2013)
They're easy to swallow and they don't repeat on you like other fish oils. When you open the bottle it might reek but you don't get the taste when you actually consume it - thankfully.Goes Well With:any drink - probably better with water
- (07 / Sep / 2013)
This Antarctic Krill Oil smells terrible but there's no taste or after taste and no fishy burps. It works great and has worked wonders on my dodgy knees. Goes Well With:water
- (30 / Jul / 2013)
It's Krill Oil. It's not going to be ultra-tasty and filled with butterfly nectar and unicorn tears. However, it gets the Omega-3 into you, and it does so without giving you fishy breath and a feeling as though you swallowed the contents of your aquarium.Goes Well With:Breakfast.

Astounded! Training for a half marathon and since upping my runs from 6 to 8 now ten miles 3x per week I developed aches in and just above my knees on post run days. I started the kill oil on a non run day and the following day did my ten miles in a personal best time without any soreness in my knees.
The personal best I can't attribute to the kill oil but the knee aches haven't come back. I'm no whisp of a runner either at 16st my knees endure some serious stress. I've not adjusted any other training variables so It can only be down to the kill oil. It however doesn't feel as though it minimizes muscle soreness from weight training but for joint pain its a saviour.
I'm currently on Warfarin (blood thinner) and because of those I'm not able to take anti inflamatories like iburofen or aspirin. I'm therefore very pleased that the oil works especially as quickly as it did.

Got this for my heart palpitations and it definitely works.Goes Well With:any drink

I bought these Antarctic Krill Oil capsules as I've read that krill oil is more effective than fish oil, so you don't need to take such large quantities to get the benefits, both to mind, joints etc. I'm very pleased with the product. They're easy to swallow and they don't repeat on you or make you burp. Just take one each morning, it couldn't be easier.

This Antarctic Krill Oil was recommended by my chiropractor after a fall. I've been taking 2 a day for 2 years now along with my wife who has arthritic ankle which plays up in the winter, and we both feel 100% better. We have recommended it to friends and family.
Great product
- (30 / Apr / 2013)
I have been taken these Antarctic Krill Oil tablets for a few weeks now and I really love the results. My knee has been so much better despite all the training I am doing. I didn't see the results straight away, it took a week and a half to start feeling the improvements. It's highly recommended.
- (08 / Apr / 2013)
After starting on Antarctic Krill Oil, I feel more alert and more healthy.

Antarctic Krill Oil is a great product with no fishy after taste. Works wonders for my knee's on high mileage cycling.

I found that these stopped any clicking or joint aches and took about a week to notice the effects.

"Make no mistake, at £50 for 4 months supply this is not a cheap way to get your daily dose of fishy oils. However, it is worth every penny. I'm on my third 240 capsule pot of this now, my second in succession after trying it out last year. At 45 years old, I do tend to creak a little getting up in the mornings. Or at least I used to anyway. Since using this product, I'm a lot more fluid in my movements, morning creaks have disappeared and the beginnings of aches in my joints have vanished. I haven't picked up any colds or viral infections either but that might just be coincidence. I cannot recommend this product highly enough, particularly to older fitness freaks, those with joint issues and those who dislike fish. If you do take the plunge, don't expect to see results overnight - it took about four to six weeks before I began to notice the improvements in my well-being. Oh, and no fishy burps either! This supplement for me is an essential and one that I shall keep on using. Shame there are no multi-buy discounts available."

Joe Buck, HBO respond to wild Artie Lange appearance
Story Highlights
Artie Lange quickly turned his segment into a verbal fight with Joe Buck
Things became more vulgar and tense on a post-show segment
HBO sports president said Lange "bordered on bad taste"
NEW YORK -- Artie Lange began his assault in the green room. It was 30 minutes before his segment on Joe Buck Live at the Equitable Center Theater in midtown Manhattan and Lange was searching for victims. First up was Brett Favre. During Buck's opening segment with the retired-for-the-moment quarterback, Lange offered a critique of Favre's comic timing: "Hey, it's Brett Dangerfield," Lange said. When William Bastone, editor of TheSmokingGun.com, appeared on camera for a taped segment, Lange declared, "Now I know what he looks like. Don't ever sleep, Bastone!" Lange laughed hysterically at Yankee pitcher Joba Chamberlain's DUI arrest video and joked with an HBO producer moments before going on the air, "Do you have any blow?"
But The Howard Stern Show comic saved his sharpest bite for the stage as part of a panel featuring actor Paul Rudd and Saturday Night Live cast member Jason Sudeikis. The scheduled subject was sports and celebrity but quickly turned into a battle of wills between Lange and the host. When Buck joked that his favorite Web site was TMZ.com, Lange pounced. He asked Buck, "What's your second favorite?" and then created his own URL involving a sex act that we can't print here. The onslaught never stopped. "Is that it?' Lange asked, near the end of the show. "Because that's what the president of HBO will be telling you soon."
After the live show ended, Buck and the panel continued with a 10-minute segment for the studio audience. It was raunchy and tense. When Buck said the last segment was coming to an end, Lange cracked, "Dude, this is your last segment...ever." NFL Hall of Famer Michael Irvin, who was a guest in earlier segment with Chad Ochocinco, summed it up best: "It's just refreshing to see white-on-white crime," Irvin said.
Buck said after the show that he was aware of Lange's comedy "but I didn't think it would go to that degree. But I don't want it to ruin what I think was a really good show. For whatever happened [with Lange], live is live. There were things said at the end that I am not fan of but people can judge what Artie said however they want."
Before Lange left the stage, Buck said Lange asked him, "Was I good? Was that great?" "That's his M.O.," Buck said. "That's what he believed he was brought here to do. And, you know, he can. He's a guest and it's live TV. At some point short of hitting a trap door, what are you going to do?... He came out and did his thing. I can't blame him for that but I wish it was a notch lower. I was thinking, 'How much longer do we have in the segment?' I thought that spending time on a treadmill felt long, but that [segment] was eight or nine minutes turned into an eternity."
Lange walked off the stage to mostly applause. As he departed the stage, he said, "Waaagggh. I'll never be on here again." Prior to the show in talking with a reporter who asked him about throwing out a first pitch at a minor league game in Trenton soon, Lange cracked, "I'm going to be thrown out the first minute here."
HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg said Lange "bordered on bad taste" and had a "mean-spirited" tone. Greenburg said the segment made him uncomfortable at times, but he hoped that the Favre interview (which Buck handled very well) would be the story that carried the day. "This feels like they are not going to be too complementary to his [Lange's] appearance, just judging from the reaction of the crowd. But it really is the public's judgment. Live television is all about risk-reward and we knew who Artie Lange was when he was booked. There was a certain degree of a risk factor where he would go and where he would take us."
On Tuesday's Stern show, Lange claimed that Greenburg told him if Rudd and Sudeikis were boring, he should "go nuts." He then called Greenburg a series of unpublishable names.
Buck said he had not met Lange prior to a quick meeting in the green room ("Don't suck," Buck said to his guests prior to heading on stage for the start of the show.) "We didn't book him to be crude or walk and cross some line," Buck said. "We booked him because he's a funny guy and somebody who loves sports. It's up to any guest on a live show to take it where they want to take it. He decided to take it where he took it."

it was terrible!!!! I am so sad to write this but the worst movie ever!!!
March 26, 2013
You need to put your seat belt on for this flick. Action from front to back. Bruce is still the man to beat in action flicks. Stay off the edge of the seat. You'll see.

oh, forgot the one star rating....way too many starts...
March 18, 2013
Bruce Willis pulls off it off! A great story of a tough-love teacher in an inner-city school. Very inspiring and a tear-jerker! Highly recommend it as a first-date movie!!!
February 25, 2013
EXCELLENT!!!!! Action packed from start to finish. GREAT story and twist. Funny, great special effects!!
Critic Reviews powered by Metacritic ™
Chicago Sun-Times
Like the Bond movies, the "Die Hard" films thrive on brilliantly wicked villains. In this edition, we barely know which bad guy is the main bad guy. The script is filled with heavy-handed dialogue about parents and their children, framed by well choreographed but generic action sequences. Full Review
Claudia Puig
USA Today
The best thing about A Good Day to Die Hard is its title. Full Review
Joe Morgenstern
Wall Street Journal
For anyone who remembers the "Die Hard" adventures at their vital and exciting best, this film feels like a near-death experience. Full Review
Joe Neumaier
New York Daily News
Ultimately, even more than 2007's "Live Free or Die Hard,""Good Day" never lets McClane be McClane. Gone is his taunting snark and quick-witted preparedness; instead he seems like a jerk with a thing for guns. Full Review
Kenneth Turan
Los Angeles Times
A Good Day to Die Hard plays like an extended victory lap for star Bruce Willis and the entire "Die Hard" franchise. Not surprising, but not overwhelmingly entertaining either. Full Review

Since the 2000 Super Bowl season, the Ravens have set a standard for greatness on defense. The torch has been passed on from a Rod Woodson and Peter Boulware to a Haloti Ngata and Ed Reed.
Great defenses in Baltimore were guaranteed like death and taxes, but we're waiting to see if the trend continues in 2012.
After three preseason games, there are a lot of questions about six of the Ravens young defensive players. There is still time for improvement, but right now you're not encouraged or discouraged.
It's a blah, blah feeling — as in mediocre.
"I would agree, the younger guys have to step up and play at the level the veterans have played at," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said. "If you want to sustain anything that is great like the defense in this league, there has to be an influx of younger guys.
"All our guys have done well; all are capable and poised to do it. Whether or not they do it, we'll see.
Of the six who need to play well this season, tackle Arthur Jones and linebackers Paul Kruger and Albert McClellan have played reasonably well. Tackle Terrence Cody has become more consistent in the past two weeks, but rookie linebacker Courtney Upshaw and second-year cornerback Jimmy Smith have struggled.
Upshaw has been the most disappointing because he came into training camp 8 to 9 pounds overweight and out of shape.
That's absurd.
How does a rookie who signed a $5.2 million contract and is basically guaranteed a starting job report 8 to 9 pounds overweight?
Then he hurts his shoulder and misses nearly a week of practice. We have yet to see one great play from the former University of Alabama star.
"He is slowly coming along," Harbaugh said. "The shoulder injury set him back but now he has gotten a lot of reps and this upcoming game will be important for him."
Smith, the 2011 first round pick out of Colorado , looks the part. He has great size and can run with almost any receiver. But he has hardly been the shutdown type the scouts projected a year ago.
You would figure he'd have ball awareness skills by now, but that has been a consistent problem along with injuries. He has a history of back spasms going to back to his days in college.
"His position to the receiver hasn't been great," Harbaugh said. "When you are in the end zone, you can't be on top of the receiver. You have to get between the receiver and the quarterback and force him to throw over the top. He has put himself in tough positions to find the ball and he really hasn't.
"But he has all the tools to play and we're confident he will be able to do it. At Colorado, hardly anyone threw at him, so this is all part of the growing process, part of his development. We see him getting better in practice, but we want to see him do it in the games."
Smith has to grow up quickly.
The Ravens lost their top two starting outside linebackers from a year ago in Terrell Suggs and Jarret Johnson, and they haven't been able to get a consistent pass rush in the preseason.
With Lardarius Webb playing so well at one corner, teams are going to challenge Smith and fellow corner Cary Williams.
An easier solution would be for Kruger, McClellan, Jones or Cody to become better at rushing the quarterback.

George Sutherland (March 25, 1862 – July 18, 1942) was an English-born U.S. jurist and political figure. One of four appointments to the Supreme Court by President Warren G. Harding, he served as an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court between 1922 and 1938.

- Do the people of this land—in the providence of God, favored, as they sometimes boast, above all others in the plenitude of their liberties—desire to preserve those so carefully protected by the First Amendment: liberty of religious worship, freedom of speech and of the press, and the right as freemen peaceably to assemble and petition their government for a redress of grievances? If so, let them withstand all beginnings of encroachment. For the saddest epitaph which can be carved in memory of a vanished liberty is that it was lost because its possessors failed to stretch forth a saving hand while yet there was time.

State police and sheriff's deputies had drawn their guns and were taking cover behind their cruisers and trees when Detective Sgt. John Burne pulled up.
Tuesday, Feb.21, 2012. Sagadahoc County Sheriff Joel Merry outside the Sagadahoc County Courthouse and Sherff's Dept. in Bath.
John Patriquin/Staff Photographer
Burne's department, the Sagadahoc County Sheriff's Office in Bath, was responding to a call from a panic-stricken wife. Her husband, who was in a dispute with a neighbor, showed her a handgun and made threats about harming the person.
The woman left her Woolwich house and phoned a local mental health agency, which in turn contacted police. Five deputies and three Maine State Police troopers responded, setting the scene in November of 2011 for a standoff that had the potential to turn violent.
But this police action had a peaceful ending.
Burne is a trained negotiator who has taken a special crisis intervention course aimed at defusing confrontations with mentally disturbed people. After consulting with the other officers by radio, Burne used his cellphone to contact the man.
"I got him to quickly understand that I wanted to help him," Burne said. "I had a brief window to establish some trust."
Within 15 minutes, the man came out, unarmed and complying with instructions to keep his hands in the air. Burne walked up to him and introduced himself. The man allowed Burne to place him in handcuffs and drive him to Mid Coast Hospital in Brunswick.
Burne, who retired earlier this year after 30 years in law enforcement, is modest about his role and said other officers could have achieved the same outcome. But the fact is, the majority of Maine police officers lack special training to help them peacefully defuse similar confrontations.
At a time when police increasingly respond to dangerous situations involving mental illness or substance abuse, this lack of training can increase the risk of officers using deadly force to gain control, or of being injured in the line of duty.
These conclusions are based on a review of dozens of police shootings in Maine, a tally of departments and officers who have received special training, and interviews in Maine and elsewhere with law enforcement officials and criminologists.
The training gap is most apparent with the Maine State Police. Since 1990, state police have used deadly force more often than any other department, firing a gun in roughly one third of the state's 101 shooting incidents.
State troopers often are first responders and sometimes act as front-line counselors to people who are angry and armed. But of the 200 troopers who patrol Maine highways, only 14 have received Crisis Intervention Team training.
This training, known as CIT, is a voluntary, community-based program that helps police and corrections officers handle situations involving people who are undergoing a mental health crisis. At its core are techniques meant to calm disturbed people and lower the risk of violence.
CIT isn't a panacea, and its impact is hard to quantify. But advocates say the specialized, 40-hour training program, pioneered in Memphis, Tenn., can reduce incidents of force and restraint, as well as officer injuries.
Every department in Maine "should strive to maintain at least one CIT officer per shift," according to the state's model policy for responding to mental illness and involuntary commitment. The policy was endorsed last January by the Maine Chiefs of Police Association.
But police are a long way from reaching that goal. The main reason is money. With tight budgets, administrators say they need to balance the benefits with the impact and cost of losing a patrol officer for a week, or paying for a replacement.
That balance illustrates the tension between "frequency and criticality," said David Klinger, associate professor of criminology and criminal justice at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. Police shootings are infrequent in most communities, so administrators are reluctant to divert resources from critical, more common needs.

Calling all creative City fans
- 21 March 2011 14:49
- Posted by Danny Taylor/Chris Nield
Blues with a creative flare could soon be seeing their designs on the shelves at the Manchester City stores, as the CityStore is launching a 'Design a t-shirt' competition in a bid to find some exciting new styles for fans.
Following the success of the junior 'Design a t-shirt' competition, which has seen 12 year old Megan Roberts' t-shirt design (pictured) on sale in the stores, the CityStore is now inviting over 16's to send in their designs. City fans are being encouraged to embrace their creative side and design a Manchester City t-shirt they feel captures the essence of the club. The t-shirts that are deemed strong enough to appeal to other fans by the judging panel, made up of Manchester City FC, CityStore and Umbro experts, will be produced to go on sale in the CityStores.
Commenting on the competition, CityStore marketing manager Danny Taylor said: "The fans are at the heart of this football club and we wanted to give them the opportunity to create something that can be enjoyed by fellow Blues. When we undertook the junior competition earlier in the year, we didn't expect to receive so many quality designs, so we have high hopes for this competition and hope the older fans can match the exciting standards of the junior Blues."
The winner picks up 10 copies of their t-shirt to give away to friends and family as well as the recognition of being the creative genius behind the winning design. To take part in the competition, simply send your design to Manchester City, Mere PR, 8 Cecil Road, Hale, Altrincham, WA15 9PA including your name, address, age and contact number, or alternatively scan in your design and email to firstname.lastname@example.com by 15 April.
Think you can do better than some of these great designs we've already recieved? Get creating!

Garlic-pepper crusted ribeye. It's roasted on the rare side because when I bring this to work for lunch, I have to microwave it. After microwaving, it will at a perfect R-MR.
AGP, Nice color but microwaving Beef? How did you cook it? Looks Sous Vide? Well done Sir!
One thing you can give and still keep...is your word.
Thank you! No sous vide, just plain old searing on cast iron then roasting in the oven. And yea microwave beef, there's no other way to heat it up at the office. I was surprised how little liquid came out when I cut it, but how juicy and tender it was when eaten. I must have been very lucky with my timing!
Dinner - pasta.
Wife wanted breakfast for dinner. Scrambled egg over bacon lattice and English muffin, topped with hollandaise. Poblano homefries and chive oil.
Some very nice looking food I have witnessed in this forum. Great talent with some, and a mouth watering pleasure.
Today just did some quick wraps:
Grass fed beef,
Organic: Onion, Tomato, Lime, Chilli(s), for the Salsa with some other things no on the mind this second.
German Beer, of course that is what we drink in these woods.
BTW can we not add attachments for photos?
Duck breast was on special, so who was I to ignore such a nice treat. Duck breasts are one of my favourite to cook.
Basic fry, then in the oven for 10 mins:
Red Chilli, Apple, Garlic, Espresso, Curry (plus something else I forgot at moment).
Basically just playing around with some flavours.
Chips, aka Fries are triple cooked. If you have not cooked chips this way, boy are you missing out and I would highly recommend trying.

The guy at the 6 o'clock position is there to boost the speed of the rocket. A much cherished appointment by these moon god worshipers.

Edit: The link (to the video) no longer exists anywhere that I can find it. It was originally on PatDollard.com. But I had downloaded the video while it was up in 2007. I have just now uploaded the video to DepositFiles.com if anybody is interested. Its only 887kb so it is rather a small file even in its uncompressed state. Its an Flv file (so you could watch it with Flv player) but I watch it with VLC Player. Truly an excellent 20 second video. Allahu Akbar!

This is some good Italian! – The food is as elegant as the picture. Not only delicious, but large portions. Perfect for a date. I don't know if i agree with the guy that said the Bruschetta was not good, I thought it was on spot.
I will happily return!
Seemed nice, until the food showed up – The CON of this place was the definitely the Food.
Very small portions for a steep price, although that seems to be the trend in NYC so no complaints directed at this restaurant.
The Appetizers were definitely not worth mentioning.
(the traditional) Bruschetta's were not good. Just some petite particles (not slices) of French bread, laid out with diced tomatoes, maybe sprinkled with some olive oil, but all I could taste was the chilled tomatoes. (so much for the "Best Bruschetta" review - below)
Between the two pasta dishes which were ordered, one had a VERY STRONG taste of gorgonzola cheese, which put me off before eating it. I am no professional Chef, but I thought they specialize in perfecting such dishes so that it eases the smell or taste?
The other pasta was hard to chew and simply tasted bland. Needless to say my friend and I couldn't even finish them and took them home (which stank up the house of cheese)
The PROS were the atmosphere, decent, romantic and fairly quiet. The staff seemed friendly.
Great WINE LIST – this rustic wine bar with old world charm has a great wine list and a romantic cozy feel. I highly recommend trying the Malbec they serve by the glass it is phenomenal!
Great UES Wine Bar – Great place. Cannot wait to return.
Best Bruschetta in the city!! – mmm I LOVE Uva! The place is dimly lim and romantic. Great wine selection and the food is absolutely delicious! They have probably the best Bruschetta I've had in the city and the pasta is consistently good!
The manager and staff are always very accommodating.
This place is a gem in the UES! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu
I <3 Uva – Love this place- neighborhood gem! They have a great wine selection. We ordered the goat cheese bruschetta and the gnocci and it was fantastic. Have also had the baked pasta and eggplant appetizer which are all very good. Usually have fantastic pasta specials. Pretty looking people on staff and great summer date place with patio and sidewalk seating.
Fantastic Wine Bar – I've been to Uva a handful of times and it's really great. They have a nice winelist, excellent if you wish to buy by the bottle. The bruschetta is awesome, particularly the mushroom one. The bread was thick and crunchy and the veggies were very fresh. I have also had the gnocchi with truffle oil and it's out of this world - rich and savory. The prices are reasonable and the ambience is nice. In the spring and summer, I very highly recommend grabbing a friend and getting a spot out on their patio. It's so pleasant. The only drawback is that space is somewhat limited. You can't fit a party bigger than 2 on the patio comfortably. But still, a great spot. Go there!
Not so great food at Very high price – When my friends who have previously recommended a great Italian restuarant raved about UVA, I was excited and anticipated eating great food. The appetizer was pretty ok, but the price was way too high for what it offered. Dinner was the other way around, the price was ok, but the food was not something I would have to go to a restaurant to eat. The worst part of it was paying $3 for a small glass (imagine one of those small freshly squeezed OJ at a diner) of giner ale with no refill. After ice in it, there was hardly any ginger ale. And I had to wait over 30 minutes to get the drink. I would not go here again.
Thoroughly unremarkable – I have no great complaints with UVA, but neither is there anything in particular to recommend it. The highlight is the wine list, and I particularly appreciated the large selection of wines by the glass. The food is decent if not outstanding. The ricotta gnocci was pretty good but the veal ragout was disappointing. The dining room is loud, particularly close to the bar, and the service staff give the appearance of being constantly in a rush, though the service itself can be quite slow. For the money we didn't feel cheated, but neither will we rush back.
great wine bar! – I love uva. The atmosphere in all four sections is wonderful. The sidewalk cafe is quiet and great for people watching. The back garden is quiet and romantic. The main floor is loud but festive. The downstairs is cozy. I love all of their food selections- bruschetta is delicious, cheese plates are perfect, and the salads and pasta are delectable.
My only complaint is that they took the Bonarda wine off the menu. When I asked the waiter last night if they still had it and it was just not on the menu, he said, "No, that was a special." Weird, because I have been coming here consistently for 3 years and had the Bonarda every time. Not what I would consider a "special." Bring back the Bonarda!
